Is a 'Best Offer' binding?

I made a 'Best Offer' to a Seller. They have 48 hrs to respond. Meanwhile, I found the item at a better price. If the Seller comes back within that 48 hr time period and accepts my 'Best Offer', am I obligated to buy the item ....or can I decline?

Yes.

... unless the listing closes/ends before the 48 hrs expire.
